|
| Twenty per cent of the study group included consultants, who rarely carry out defibrillation. |
|
| A proportion of patients are unsuitable for defibrillation because their initial arrhythmia is asystole or pulseless electrical activity. |

| A defibrillation without a massage has very little chance of success confirms Louis Dorange. |
|
| People with myocardial infarction would not be helped and instead would be harmed by defibrillation. |
|
| However, they will not initiate cardiac monitoring or administer chest compressions, artificial respiration, defibrillation, or cardioversion. |
|
| With manual defibrillation, you must evaluate the ECG rhythm to determine whether or not it is shockable. |
|
| If a shockable ECG rhythm is present, the graphics illuminate and voice prompts guide the rescuer through the defibrillation sequence. |
|
| The arrest was witnessed by a health care provider or required therapy such as CPR or defibrillation or was documented on an EKG or monitor. |
|
| Do not allow exposed portions of the patient's body to come in contact with metal objects, such as a bed frame during defibrillation. |
|
| With defibrillation electrodes in use, you can change from semiautomatic mode to ECG monitoring mode. |
|
|
|
| Mr Miller wrote on Twitter that Mr Jaffa survived his heart attack after medics used defibrillation. |
|
| He had also had defibrillation training, first-aid instructor training and remote first-aid instructor training. |
|
| He had had defibrillation training and held a pleasure craft operator card. |
|
| I have an ambulance attendant I know of who is a paramedic, does defibrillation, and is a casualty simulator. |
|
| The study found that basic life support with defibrillation and advanced life support are effective but expensive compared to basic life support. |
|
| Cardiac arrest or arrhythmias may require cardiac massage or defibrillation. |
|
| The superiority and greater safety of biphasic shocks over monophasic shocks for defibrillation are emphasized. |
|
| Remove the V. A. C. Dressing if defibrillation is required in the area of dressing placement. |
|
| This new generation of defibrillators improves both cardiopulmonary resuscitation and defibrillation at the scene of a cardiac arrest. |
|
| The question of whether incorrect paddle position is a cause of unsuccessful defibrillation of patients in ventricular fibrillation remains unanswered. |
|
| Prompt initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation with defibrillation for ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia is essential for survival. |
|
| If your patient has a ventricular tachycardia then defibrillation may not work. |
|
| If the unit detects a shockable rhythm while in ECG monitoring mode and defibrillation electrodes are in use, the unit prompts you to check the patient and then changes to semiautomatic mode. |
|
| If this doesn't work, or a very serious problem is detected, the device will deliver a more noticeable shock to the heart, known as defibrillation. |
|
| His research has produced several publications in the areas of pre-hospital defibrillation, battery maintenance, and the optimization of light levels from laryngoscopes. |
|
| The current in biphasic waveforms flows in a bidirectional pattern between the paddles, resulting in a lower defibrillation threshold. |
|
| The installation of defibrillators in arenas and Service de sécurité incendie emergency vehicles gives victims of sudden cardiac arrest swifter access to defibrillation. |
|
| As for the defibrillation manoeuvres, they must start within 8 minutes. |
|
| Since the current, and not the delivered energy, is decisive for the defibrillation efficiency, pulsed biphasic defibrillations are generally completed after approx. 8 ms. |
|
| The recipient heart, however, fibrillated repeatedly in the postoperative period and eventually would not respond to electrical defibrillation. |
|
|
|
| To avoid unwanted pathways for defibrillation current, do not allow exposed portions of the patient's body to touch metal objects, such as a bed frame. |
|
| The supply sockets with DC12V, AC220V are equipped for defibrillation, cardiogram monitor, respirator, electric aspirator, infusion pump and so on. |
|
| A new study from Oslo, Norway, underscores the importance of CPR when defibrillation is delayed more than five minutes. |
|
| Improvements in the technology and implantation procedures of internal ventricular defibrillation devices has provided an alternative way to reduce risk of sudden death from ventricular arrhythmias in high-risk patients. |
|
| The emergency room nurses, doctors, and technicians tear open the patient's shirt, start cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and roll in the defibrillation machine. |
|
| We hypothesised that a threshold value of AMSA could be identified as an indicator of successful defibrillation in human victims of cardiac arrest. |
|
| Defibrillation shocks stop the heart's waves and prevent new ones from occurring. |
|
| Defibrillation within three minutes of a witnessed collapse gave the best chance of survival. |
|
| Defibrillation therapy delivers such a strong shock that you may feel as if you're being kicked in the chest by a horse. |
